You win the prize. Yep. Old username from college. Couldn't find one with "finance" in it that wasn't already in use anywhere. had to shorten it all the way to "fin" before it would take.

KAO is my initials and heim is house in german, which is my ancestry. I have several variations of that name on other message boards but they're pretty similar. I use a completly different one on the local forums, just to be prudent.

Has nothing to do with taking a dump either

Although it's been asked before! LOL

I do like Gaztastic's Dimpled One references however, they can stay!

people always seem to think that I say "yeah but" all the time but I don't say it except when someone else says it I will repeat it!

I got it from my daughters - they would always say "Yeah But Mum" and I would say "No yeah buts around here" - it became a joke with us through the years. I got it on my license plate first, they loved it! Just has stuck since then.

Mine's my real first name. My Mom made it up so, I haven't come across too many people who have it. Therefore, I use it. lol Plus, I do like it. My Mom said when she was pregnant with me she was looking up at the stars one night when the name came to her.

This is a fun thread! I love hearing how everyone came up with their screen names.

I chose Koala because I wanted something that would identify me as Australian, and the 77 is both the year I was diagnosed, and the year my DD was born......(she was 6 months old when I was told I had MS).

Oops! Just realized that I don't use "Mamabug" as my username on this board; I use FaithS. But, many people still know me as Mamabug from another board. And, my email address has mamabug in it.

Faith is my middle name. S is the first initial of my first name.
